What is the GoldFisch Method™?
The GoldFisch Method™ brings you client segmentation you never had before for business development and practice management, with 2 key ingredients.
1. The 5 categories for a precisely accurate overall client score.
2. Using the Pareto Principle “The 80/20 Rule”, twice.
Have you ever had a client that had a smaller account but sent you 3-5 high quality referrals? Have you ever had a larger client who was a flight risk or didn’t respect your time? Have you ever had a client with a medium sized account currently, but who had massive potential due to their career? And, if you are segmenting based on revenue only, would these examples be accurately captured? In the simplest way possible, we need a system to rank all of these nuances accurately and repeatedly so you can focus your time and efforts on your key relationships and scale your business effectively.
Enter the 80/20 rule squared…
The 80/20 rule has proven over and over again to be widely applicable in business. And here we take that principle and apply it, twice. While 20% of clients generate 80% of revenue, the top 4% contribute 64%, and the next 16%—our “anchor clients”—add another 15-20%.
Meanwhile, 80% of clients account for just 20% of revenue. By identifying these key segments, we provide tools to measure and maximize by focusing on your most valuable relationships.
